Wow throwback. Completely forgot about the massive spark plug hole nuts. They were like 30 or something ridiculous like that. Every problem you mentioned I had. I see that little puddle of oil in the intro already. What's worse is around that time I was far from the family and the took their car to a chain shop that had a 9.99 discount coupon for oil change, and they used Kendall synblend. Accelerating the cleaning of the engine but also softening seals and making leaks worse because of the better flow.. And don't forget the unstartable conditions after heat soak. For example shutting down at a drive thru. I believe it was a clogged EGR problem or something. Clean it and it would go away for six months. Shame this happened to this couple. That's very low miles for it's age. it should be another year when it should hit triple it's current mileage. The loose ring on the AR/AZ's and this problem, it's almost like Toyo didn't want to tarnish it's name by doing recalls. With the Japanese way, maybe there would have been too many loss of life at the company due to shame if they did do a recall.. for either problem..
